Authorities have charged five city men in connection with a July homicide that escalated into a fury of deadly violence between two drug factions.

Officials on Tuesday also said a city man had been charged in a separate case, the May 31 slaying of Kishaun Burks, 23, of Camden. Donte Jones, 24, is accused of shooting Burks around 4:30 p.m. near Roberts and Royden streets, according to the Camden County Prosecutor's Office.
